You can purchase Pro Codes for multiple years at a time for any number of users and they can be entered at any time (but only by an Owner)

Codes typically expire 1 year from purchase date, no matter when the codes are entered.

You will receive your codes on your emailed receipt once your order has been processed and shipped. If you did not order any hardware, you will receive an email with the subject line “Your Swivl order receipt” as soon as the order is processed.

If you worked with a Sales Representatives at Swivl, they will help you determine your Team Owner. If you purchased through a partner, let them know who you desire to be assigned as Team Owner. The Owner that you designate will be sent an email from Swivl with instructions on how to setup their account. Then a member of the Customer Success Team will contact your Team Owner to offer resources for customization and configuration of the Team account and provide implementation and planning guides for your successful video program.

4. Renew Team Subscription or Add Pro seats to your Team

Swivl is a subscription service and will need to be renewed periodically. How you will do this also depends on how you purchased initially. 

If your Team is currently active and you wish to renew for the following years, you can do this anytime and moreover make any Pro seats adjustments effective for the following years.

For example, your Team currently has 10 Pro Seats and it expires in a few months. You want to keep your 10 Pro seats for the next few months and after it expires that you want to have 25 Pro seats for the next three years. You can purchase renewal now and not worry about this later. Contact Sales and discuss your specific needs in detail.

Based on your needs we will create and email you the Renewal code and as a Team Owner you will need to activate it under Enter Pro Code option at cloud.swivl.com/upgrade 

5. Renewals Management 

Codes entered for the following year during an active subscription (sold as a renewal of the existing team) will be tacked on once the active subscription expires

You will not see a change in your Pro Team Members allocations (top left) after entering a renewal code, even though the expiration date will be updated at that time. You won't see the new number of Pro Team Members until that code takes effect the following year.

You can however check out your subscriptions, and the exact subscription expiration dates for the codes we activated for you in this nifty graph in your Admin portal:
